Today we took the bullet train from Taipei down to Kaohsiung in southern Taiwan. The train ride took 90 minutes and we travelled at 186 mph when at top speed.
Kaohsiung, population around 1.5 million is the city where Yu-Lin has lived her entire life. She is here somewhere in this city with her foster family getting ready to met us. If Taipei is like New York, thenKaohsiung is Los Angeles. More laid back, a little slower, not as "trendy." We are staying at the Ambassador Hotel which is right on the Love River. At night the river is lit with neon lights and "love boats" cruise back and forth.
